CPA and Advisor Partner Program
Partner with HomeWork Solutions for household payroll and tax support for your clients.
When your clients hire household employees, the payroll compliance piece falls into a category that most CPA firms prefer not to own: quarterly state filings, local wage taxes, and year-round employer obligations that fall outside a typical tax engagement. We take it entirely off your plate.
Built for CPA firms, tax professionals, and financial advisors with household employer clients.
If your clients employ nannies, senior caregivers, or household staff, this program was built for your practice.
Household employment is a growing category for CPAs and financial advisors. As more families hire caregivers directly, and as states add new paid leave mandates, local wage obligations, and expanded labor requirements, the compliance burden on household employers is increasing every year.
Many of those families turn to their CPA first. What you tell them, and who you refer them to, has real downstream impact on the engagement and your client relationship.
- CPA firms with individual clients who employ nannies, senior caregivers, or household staff
- Tax professionals handling Schedule H filings who want a specialist to manage the underlying payroll
- Family office professionals overseeing complex household employment arrangements
Household payroll is technically your client's problem. Until it becomes yours.
The compliance gaps that household employers create do not stay invisible at tax time.
When a client comes to you in January with no payroll records, a caregiver who was paid in cash, and a vague awareness that they were supposed to do something about taxes, that problem lands on your desk. Retroactive Schedule H preparation, back-filed state returns, and the conversation about penalties are not where you want to spend your February.
The specific items that create the most friction for CPA-adjacent household employer compliance:
SUTA filings
State unemployment taxes are due quarterly in most states, with rates and forms that vary significantly by state and that change regularly
Local wage taxes
City and county wage tax requirements in multi-jurisdiction metro areas are complex and frequently overlooked
Mid-year worker additions
Families who add a second caregiver mid-year without notifying their CPA create retroactive compliance issues
Misclassification
Clients who have been paying a household employee as a 1099 contractor create a reclassification problem that requires back-filing
IRS notices
When clients forward IRS notices to their CPA instead of handling them, the CPA carries the burden of a problem that was not their responsibility
HomeWork Solutions removes every one of these from
your plate.
SUTA is handled quarterly. Local taxes are monitored and filed. Any IRS notice is ours to resolve, not yours.
Everything you need, and nothing you don't.
Here is what HomeWork Solutions CPA partners receive, and what we take off your plate.

With client permission, you access all payroll records, tax filings, and year-end documents for your mutual clients through a secure portal. Everything is there when you need it.

"We were referred by our CPA and we couldn't be happier with the service. The communication has been exceptional. They were professional, patient, and helpful during my many requests for guidance. Knowing that our caregivers will be paid on time and that the taxes and other paperwork are being processed correctly is such a relief."
